Brazilian Government Calls For Removal Of Violent Far-Right Game From Steam

Does an overtly low-budget game in which a controversial politician smacks down black and gay people count as “straight up trolling” by Valve’s new anything-goes standards? Is it an effort to “incite and sow discord”—which Valve also recently said can be disqualifying? These are the questions surrounding Bolsomito 2K18, a game that’s now being investigated…

The Dreamcast 2 Is A Custom-Painted Switch Possessed By The Ghost Of Sega’s Past

I never really thought much about the Dreamcast until it had all but vanished. By then, it had become a minor obsession of mine: a major console with weird games I’d heard and read so much about, but never gotten to play. The Dreamcast had a short life span in stores and friend’s houses, getting…

The Missing Is A Sweet But Gory Puzzle Game

The Missing begins with two messages: “This game was made with the belief that nobody is wrong for being what they are” and “This game contains explicit content, including extreme violence, sexual topics, and depictions of suicide.” The messages cut straight to the chase: The Missing is both a sweet love story and one of…

Overwatch‘s Boops Have Gotten Out Of Control

Over the last few months, Overwatch has looked less like a team shooter and more like the inside of a microwave bag of popcorn. A popular and beloved crowd control mechanic called the “boop” has become so prevalent that it’s causing anguish from players who would rather compete at a first-person shooter than pop idly…

GTA Online‘s Remixed Modes Shake Up The Game

GTA Online’s newest game modes might seem familiar. That’s because Rockstar has recently begun remixing old modes by adding new vehicles, rules or other features. While this isn’t the first time Rockstar has taken something old and added to it, these new remix modes freshen up GTA Online by drawing on what works best about…

The Making Of Nintendo’s Best Nose-Picking Game

We sometimes hear the tales behind the making of Nintendo’s greatest games: the Zeldas, the Marios and the Metroids. Let us bend our ears for another tale, this time of the making of Gold Digger, a game about a finger interacting with a nose. Gold Digger was co-created by Goro Abe, a longtime developer at…

Activision Says Call of Duty Mega Bloks Toys Are Not Aimed At Kids

Call of Duty is one of the biggest gaming franchises in the world, and Activision licenses the brand out to other companies to make merchandise. A lot of the stuff you’ll see the Call of Duty name plastered across seems to be designed for children, which is raising some questions: Why is Activision selling stuff…

Super Mario Party Expects Me To High Five These Jerks

Mario Party is a cruel game that intentionally stokes chaos between friends. Last night I agreed to play the latest game, Super Mario Party, and discovered that this new entry in the franchise has tried to add a form of sportsmanship by making your characters high five each other. It does not have the intended…

Hardcore Yaoi Game Headed To Nintendo Switch 

Originally released on PC in 2016, adults-only Omega Vampire describes itself as a “New Type of Vampire Boys’ Love Game.” Next year, it is coming onto the Nintendo Switch. Warning: This article has NSFW content. It’s unlikely that this adults-only yaoi game will be released as is. Of course, some of the game’s scenes will…

Tokyo’s New Fish Market Opens, Things Didn’t Go Well

Today is the first official day of the Toyosu Market, the new fish market that is replacing the beloved Tsukiji Fish Market. The opening wasn’t exactly smooth. In September, I visited the Tsukiji Fish Market one last time. The Tsukiji Fish Market had loads of charm (and loads of rats!), while the Toyosu Market doesn’t…

Oh Hey, Star Citizen Is Still Out There

Star Citizen has been in development since 2012. It’s still not out yet, of course, not in the traditional sense, but this trailer for the game’s big singleplayer campaign Squadron 42 has just been released, and if nothing else there sure are a lot of Hollywood faces in it. Gary Oldman! Gillian Anderson! Henry Cavill!…
